I don't think he was a habitually floater like a Kovalchuk or Kovalev but he certainly had games or periods where he floated without care about his team.
Like the selfish penalties it usually happened after he got pissed off at something/someone and was easy to pre-call it happening by watching his reactions to plays.

Exactly. It is the immature personality that he always had, and continues to have that should hold him out of jersey retirement. Sure, he was a great natural player, but these moments should keep him out of the hall of fame, and should have prevented him from even obtaining captaincy. Whatever demons you have, it doesn't excuse behavior like acting a childish prick.
